  • When it comes to issues what first comes to mind is the degree of challenge. While everything can be conquered through some practice and patience there are sections of the game that are downright punishing and will demand precision to get through. The checkpoint system helps a great deal to manage the pain of this but be prepared to die quite a lot and being sent back to the last one you passed. One reason for the difficulty is probably to help add some length to everything. Even with a steady diet of failure along the way most of the game’s 5 worlds can be conquered with persistence (varying depending on your skill level) in about an hour. However, once you beat the game an added Game+ option is unlocked along with Challenge and Boss Rush modes to help extend your time in this world. While many times I find throwback titles like this to be tedious, failing to inject enough modern touches into classic gameplay styles, once I got rolling I found A Hole New World to be very satisfying. With some creative level layouts, a diverse set of enemies, and some memorable boss fights the developers behind it put very visible effort into giving you an incentive to forge on and get through the tough sections. If you’re itching for a mix of the old, new, and the unexpected A Hole New World is easy to recommend.
